Faculty Position Opening in Data Science for Sustainable Development
School for Environment and Sustainability
University of Michigan, Ann Arbor
The new School for Environment and Sustainability (SEAS) at the University of Michigan is seeking applications for a full-time, nine-month, tenure-track open rank faculty position in the field of Data Science for Sustainable Development.
We seek candidates whose work focuses on: (i) addressing key development challenges and questions around sustainable development goals, policies, interventions and social processes, and their impact on sustainability outcomes, (ii) using cutting edge analytical tools to generate new understanding of the processes leading to sustainability transitions. The successful candidate’s research will investigate sustainability and development through an examination of issues related but not limited to health / poverty / environment / resources / infrastructure/ and/or renewable energy. Candidates will have the ability to develop new data platforms and applications that enhance the visibility of SEAS as the place to conduct such research and to be trained in this field, and (iii) combining an interest in data science, broadly defined and including statistical, econometric, spatial, simulation (e.g. ABM), and/or network analyses with the ability to train SEAS students for careers in the sustainable development field by offering courses in data science and causal inference applied to sustainable development-related subjects. Candidates from underrepresented groups are encouraged to apply.
Candidates must have a Ph.D. in in economics, public policy, applied and agricultural economics, sociology, political science, geography, remote sensing, ecology, statistics, or a closely related field. Those at the assistant level must also have a strong record of scholarly publication, evidence of teaching potential in a multidisciplinary setting, as well as other activities demonstrating a potential for and/or trajectory towards national and international recognition. Those at the associate or professor level are expected to have demonstrated teaching experience in a multidisciplinary setting, and a publication record and activities that reflect accomplishments as a nationally and internationally recognized scholar. Importantly, we are seeking candidates who have a demonstrated history of using their research to help solve real-world sustainability problems. Therefore, candidates should have some evidence of engaging stakeholders in their work, and evidence of collaboration across disciplinary boundaries to develop implementable solutions to sustainability challenges.
To apply, candidates should submit: (1) a one-page cover letter; (2) a curriculum vitae; (3) a one-page statement on how the candidate has and continues to contribute to diversity efforts and (4) names of potential letter writers for senior candidates. Assistant Professor candidates should also submit: (1) copies of 2-3 important publications, (2) three letters of recommendation and (3) teaching and research statements. All materials should be uploaded as a single PDF file at http://seas.umich.edu/employment/faculty_position_opening_data_science_sustainable_development
Review of applications will begin January 19, 2018, and we strongly encourage applications by this date. Review will continue until the position is filled, but SEAS hopes to appoint a faculty member to this position to begin in Fall 2018. Inquiries about the position can be addressed to search-staff-2018@umich.edu.

Jesse Anttila-Hughes and I would like to draw your attention to the approaching deadline for the University of San Francisco's International and Development Economics (IDEC) Master's program. The IDEC program is a two-year Master's degree that places a strong emphasis on the basics of conducting original applied econometric research in development economics. Students specialize in either an applied microeconomic or international / macroeconomic track, taking multiple field and core classes, three semesters of econometrics, and working towards an original thesis research topic, including spending the summer between their first and second years abroad conducting research.
Since Jesse and I joined the department student research has tilted towards a heavy environment and development bent, and current student research includes papers on climate and disaster impacts, gender and environment, in-utero and fetal origins, fisheries and resource management, and environmental justice literatures. Recent graduates from IDEC have gone on to work at places such as J-PAL, IPA, and NERA, as well as going on to start PhDs in strong economics departments around the country.
If a student you know might be interested in applying to the IDEC program, application materials can be found at the following link: http://www.usfca.edu/artsci/idec/
I'm also happy to answer any questions directly over email, and if you have a particularly sharp applicant in mind feel free to put him or her in touch with me directly. I and other faculty will be reviewing applications through mid March.
Very best regards to all,
Yaniv

The Departments of Agricultural and Resource Economics; Economics, Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of Tennessee invite applications for a Post-Doctoral Research Associate to work on an interdisciplinary project focused on the optimal spatial targeting of payments for forest-based ecosystem services under climate and market risks.
The USDA-NIFA funded project seeks to employ Modern Portfolio Theory to take advantage of the spatial heterogeneity in climate change uncertainties and risk diversification to minimize the climate-induced risk associated with the portfolio of conservation investments that make up an incentive program. Primary responsibilities will include developing a land use model, predicting future forestland conversion to urban use under climate and market risk, establishing future supply curves for forest-based biodiversity, and deriving efficient benefit frontier for supplying forest-based biodiversity. The successful candidate will be under the direct supervision of the lead PI of the project, Dr. Seong-Hoon Cho in the Department of Agricultural & Resource Economics, and work closely with the project’s Co-PIs, Dr. Charles Sims in the Department of Economics, and Drs. Paul Armsworth, Mona Papes, and Xingli Giam in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology.
Qualifications: Candidates must have a PhD in economics, agricultural and resource economics or a related field, and experience and interest in developing land use models and land conservation investment models. Experience with financial economic approaches to conservation investments such as portfolio theory and real options theory is preferred.
Application Details: This position is based at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville and includes competitive salary and benefits. This is a full-time, 12-month, grant-funded position with the possibility of renewal for a second year contingent upon satisfactory performance and funding availability. Interested candidates should complete the online application and include (1) a cover letter describing their research interests and qualifications; (2) a CV; (3) 1-2 representative publications; and (4) a list of 3 references. Screening of applications will begin immediately. Position will remain open until filled. Candidates may direct questions to Dr. Seong-Hoon Cho at scho9@utk.edu.

The Collaborative Research Center 1342 "Global Dynamics of Social Policy" at the University of Bremen invites applications for the following academic positions - under the condition of job release -
Three PhD Researchers, Salary Scale TV-L 13, part-time 65%, start date: as soon as possible. The positions are fixed term positions until December 31, 2021.
The positions are part of the Collaborative Research Center "Global Dynamics of Social Policy" (Globale Entwicklungsdynamiken von Sozialpolitik) funded by the German Research Foundation and will be located within the project B08: Transformation of healthcare systems in Central and Eastern Europe. The project B08, led by Prof. Dr. Mirella Cacace and Dr. Monika Ewa Kaminska-Visser, describes and explains the transformation of health care systems in Central and Eastern Europe in the post-Soviet era. The main focus is on the role of the World Bank, the World Health Organization (WHO), the OECD, and the EU. In addition to these important vertical interdependencies, the importance of horizontal interdependencies among Central and Eastern European countries (CEEC) and relationships with Western European countries are analysed. The project aims to explain why most of the CEEC have implemented a similar health care system while implementing very different health care policies at the instrumental level. Methodologically, the project relies on qualitative research methods, including a comparative cross-case analysis of four case studies.
Applicants should hold an M.A. Degree in Public Health/Health Policy/Social Policy/Political Science or equivalent; have expertise in qualitative research methods, including expertise/interest in computer-aided qualitative analysis (MAXQDA), as well as experience in the analysis of healthcare systems or health policies would be an advantage; be fluent (preferably native speakers) in Bulgarian, Croatian or Estonian.
